Happy Mother’s Day! A joyous day to celebrate the miracle of life with the people we love!

I am blessed to have twin sons, Jake and David, who are 29 years old. I remember the day I gave birth all those years ago as being the most amazing day of my life! Those two perfect, precious babies, have now grown into these handsome, loving men. We enjoy each other’s company and are going to the Padres game on Sunday celebrate our special day.

Throughout the years in my healing practice, I have helped many people experience the gift of life as well. I feel like a fairy Godmother helping make dreams come true!

Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine are very helpful modalities in all stages of pregnancy, whatever the circumstances. According to several studies and medical research, acupuncture can increase fertility by reducing stress, increasing blood flow to the reproductive organs and balancing the endocrine system, creating a stronger chance for an egg to be nourished and carried to term.

With the gentle insertion of thin, disposable sterile needles at strategic points, the body’s natural energy, known as Qi, is stimulated. This helps to increase the normal flow of energy, blood, and nutrients, necessary to improve a couple’s chance of conceiving by creating spiritual, emotional, mental and physical balance. One of the ways acupuncture increases fertility. is by reducing emotional or physical stress, which is often a key factor for both men and women.

Throughout the pregnancy, acupuncture can help balance hormones, which helps with morning sickness, moods, headaches, aches and pains, anxiety, and insomnia. All of this helps to develop a healthier, happier baby. These healing treatments are also excellent for birth preparation and a faster recovery process.

May everyday be a celebration of love and joy sharing the gift of life with one another.
